Cathy was not surprised at once, “Oh, I can’t see that you’re still crazy because you bear it in mind constantly."
Aaron shook his head, and his eyes were clear, “No, she was my girlfriend in my teens. I can’t remember what she looks like now."
“...”
Cathy was embarrassed.
It turned out that this was a pure virgin in front of her. It seemed that she can’t joke with him next time.
Cathy was grateful that the waiter had saved her embarrassment by serving her food. She picked up her chopsticks and said, "Let’s have a meal."
When all the dishes were served, Aaron stared at the dishes on the table for a long time. Then he asked the waiter, “Have you served all the dishes yet?”
“Sir, all your dishes have been served.”
“Oh, well, thank you.”
After the waiter left, he looked at the woman in front of him who had been concentrating on eating. He found her both funny and annoying. “Cathy, I said it was my treat. You don’t need to save me in that way? You make me lose face...”
A table of dishes, all which were vegetarian, just a dish of meat: fried shredded pork.
She was not afraid he won’t be able to afford it?
Cathy did not raise her head and said: “Didn’t you tell me I like the light food? And who told you I was fat? I’m going to lose weight! Eat now! I won’t eat if you say another word.”
Aaron had no choice but to give up.
After dinner, it was completely dark. After Aaron left, Cathy did not rush home and began to wander around.
It was in the center of the city. It was very busy and brilliantly illuminated.
Cathy felt that she has not been relaxed like this for a long time, she walked along the sidewalk aimlessly.
Before divorce, she was always eager to do this with Tyrone, even walking side by side would make her satisfied.
But every time they meet, they have never been to any other place except the vegetable market and supermarket. And because he had no time, they all hurried by without even getting off the car.
Now think about it, it’s really funny how she persisted for so long.
With a sense of slight loss, she absently walked for a while and she was pulled back by the vibration of her mobile phone.
“Hello, Karen.”
“Cathy, where are you now?” The fatigued voice of a woman came from her cell phone.
“I’m outside.”
“Busy now?”
“No, what’s wrong?” Cathy stopped.
“I just got off work. Where are you? I'm going to find you.”
Cathy looked around and said, “Yes, but I think you're tired. Don't you want to go back to have a rest?"
"No, there is something I'd like to talk over with you. I'll talk to you later."
"Well, it is okay."
Karen hurried off and hung up.
Cathy was worried. She sent her a positioning by Facebook and went into a café nearby.
Half an hour later, a weary woman with delicate makeup opened the glass door and entered.
"Have you eaten yet?" Cathy stood up.
"No, I have no appetite." She took off her coat and sat down, as if she had suddenly lost her strength, lying weakly in the chair.
